Promising sort. Second of 8 in maiden (9/2) at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Likely to improve and go well again.

Foaled February 15. Bated Breath gelding. Half-brother to 1m winner Zappata. Dam, 1m-1¼m winner who stayed 1½m, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Shediak. The betting should guide to expectations.

Foaled February 13. €105,000 2-y-o. Zoustar half-brother to 2-y-o 6f winner Apache Green. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart 5f-1m winner Belvoir Bay, won Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint. Interesting to see what the betting makes of him.

Shaped well splitting a pair of subsequent winners in 5f novice at Newmarket on debut at the Guineas Meeting. Found the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot too hot to handle next time but leading claims with his sights lowered. Previously trained by Raphael Freire.

Foaled April 11. Starman colt. Dam, 2-y-o 5f-7f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 7f Celebration. Sovereign Spell has to be considered the stable first string unless the betting suggests otherwise.

Foaled January 22 £90,000 Starman colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 1m Gorytus and winner up to 8.6f Verona Star. Dam 2m winner. Tongue tied on debut. The booking of Oisin Murphy takes the eye.

More one for nurseries after this judged on his 2 efforts in the spring. Wears a first-time tongue tie on return from a break.

10/1
Fair maiden. Fourth of 6 in novice at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Looking exposed and likely she'll find at least the odd one too strong.

Forecasts

Sovereign Spell (5/4), Akirra (11/4), Arctic Wind (7/2), Daretobedifferent (10/1), Starlit City (12/1), Crimson Rambler (28/1), Midnight Pulse (33/1), Staniel Cay (50/1), Kanes A Lott (80/1), Who's On First (125/1), Giles Glory (150/1), Dawn Melody (300/1)

Verdict

Kevin Philippart de Foy is fresh from listed success at Newbury on Friday and SOVEREIGN SPELL, who has been given a break since Royal Ascot, can provide the new Freemason Lodge incumbent with another win in the Amo silks. Last month's Yarmouth runner-up Arctic Wind might be the one to give him most to do unless the betting speaks strongly in the favour of Ollie Sangster newcomer Starlit City, the mount of Oisin Murphy.
